The people of Liverpool and the world are rallying behind Rhys parents.
The Crimewatch reconstruction has produced excellent leads according to the media.
You can't blame these people for using every possible connection, this is their child after all.
I would go to the ends of the earth for my child.
People like you make me ashamed to be british.

Morocco has one of the best security networks in the world, believe or not. It is hard to believe that a little blondish girl could be anywhere without them having found out weeks ago. Of course, we hope for the best, but it's also not very healthy having people come here to take photos of little girls.

Abdurrahman, Marrakech , Morocco

Sorry I cannot accept these agruements; ashamed to be British, pampered rich. A young child has gone missing like many others but instead of giving in her parents have decided to publically fight on. Such spirit may uncover facts that could help all children. Please stop criticising; I've never had a phone call from an MP and never likely to and I'm not sulking about it.

Celia, notts, uk

Well we all get calls from David Milliband don't we, at least you get this special treatment if your late father was a Labour MP, this whole McCann affair absolutely stinks. Just why are all these rich men pampering this couple. Who has help the Jones family after their little boy was murdered. This story makes you be ashamed to be British

Jennifer Baker, Surrey, uk

Actually Jennifer, YOU make me ashamed to be British.

Liz Williams, London,

Who are these ridiculour people making their ludicrous comments? Obviously deeply unhappy and suspicious about the world and find that the only comfort they have is to feel superior to the McCanns. The Portugese police have come up with so many different theories, I think they have totally discredited themselves. ' Methinks the lady doth protest too much. '. Let's not forget that Portugal was a fascist dictatorship up to thirty years ago, and public services are very underresourced.

Sue R, London, UK

Can't understand the evil of human nature in the most tragic situations - guess it stems from pure envy. Hope Jennifer Baker never finds herself experiencing the same as the McCanns are going through.

Luisa Rodríguez , Lugo, Spain

every day this story stinks a little more, portugal, spain, now morrocco...British love these countries for holiday, for live there, so why now these countries are suddenly so dangerous...i remember the worst brutality murder of europe are in british where kids kill kids....These awful murders don't happen at the moment in Portugal, Spain or Morocco ..shame shame for British...

Jose Pareja, madrid,

I have a 100 percent trust in the moroccan interiour minister, If she is somewhere in Morocco, be sure that she will definetely be found, and I wish for Mcanes family all the succes in finding they little beautiful madeleine.
And the idea of private investigators is not bed at all.
Good luck

i should think since the abductor is also following up on the events, would they walk around places with her in a noticiably way knowing she can be easily identified due to her limelight now. if they have been very clever to not leave any traces and get away with it for this long, i think maddy is being kept in the house until the limelight dies down because walking with her knowing she wil definitely be identified. and knowing that everybody is looking for a blondegirl i would assume they would dye her hair to reduce those chances of being identified

lala, england,

Good Luck to them. I think private investigators should have been hired months ago.

Kim Righetti, Upland, Calif. USA

The more tactics the Mcanns try to use the more suspects they become.

kloos, Zeeland, Holland

Ray, I´m agree a 100% with you.
I make your worthes my worthes.
Thank you.

Diana Vasconselos, Faro, Portugal

Carol Meadows made the right call.....as well as Ray & S. Allen.

Nick Heron, ohlstadt, Germany

Why begrudge the McCanns any help they are offered. Surely people hope Madeline will be found soon and this nightmare will soon be over.
Why shouldn't people help the family find her. The state of the world with paedophiles and stolen children is a horror to us all. The slow progress of the portugese ploice in the first few hours has much to answer for. They should have had a system in place to close borders immediately.
It seems they have not taken a missing child seriously in the past. My prayers are with the McCanns and with Madeline. May they be united as soon as possible. Thank you to all who have donated their help and their money. I can only pray.

Rosemary Walters, Brixham, Devon

Dear Mr &Mrs McCann, I am gutted at the way your are both being treated by " The Portuguese Police ", how they have the front to tell you that you are not allowed to discuss matters concerning your own daughter, especially under the circumstances, leaves me thinking that it may be because they are only attempting to conceal there own dammed inefficiencies. It would appear that the same protocol does not apply on the other side of the coin in as much as they seem quite able to make it known world wide that they have implicated you both in the disappearance of Madeleine. What gives them the rite to discredit you on an international scale with there assumptions, they have no heart or compassion, and I think they are intellectually incapable as a Police force, and its them that should be in court for deformation. And I hope one day you are in a position to take them there. I have been following Madeline’s story every day and my heart goes out to you both it really does, I hope sincerely that this nightmare will soon be over for you both

I think negative coverage has spiralled out of control. These are two loving parents trying their very best to find their daughter. I support them all the way. They are trying to deal with their grief, raise their two twins as normally as possible and maintain the search for their daughter. How can people be so cruel? The inner strength they have shown is amazing and i pray each day that there will be a positive lead.
Even if Madeleine is not to be found alive, how can they even begin to deal with the situation if they have no closure? Please let us support them. There is a little girl out there who needs our help.

I actually think, assuming that Madeline is or was still alive at the start of this saga, all of the publicity surrounding her disapperance would actually have hurt her chances of survival. If she had been abducted to be sold, her captors would have been faced with trying to sell on the most instantly recognisable child in the world...what would they have left to do but either kill or abandon her?

While I still hope that the improbable happens and Madeline is found alive and well, I have zero sympathy for her parents, and that's speaking as a parent myself. It's no use saying that they made a mistake once only - they repeatedly left their children alone, and if she was abducted it was very likely down to the fact that the abductor was well aware of the fact that they were alone in that apartment. That isn't down to misfortune, it's down to wilful neglect.

Ali, Southampton,

The last comment shows just how much this thing has taken on a disturbing medieval witch-hunt tone. The McCanns 'sedating' their children has somehow turned from wild speculation in Portuguese newspapers to hard fact. Our technology advances to give us these online forums but. our minds - well, some of them - stay trapped in the 16th century...

Peter Allen, London, UK

I'm thankful to see that we still have people like Brian Kennedy who can make the difference in helping to find Madelaine. It's just a pity that the British police were not involved from the beginning then perhaps Madelaine would be home now. My heart goes out to Gerry, Kate and their family. If it was your little girl or boy what would you do?

Julie, Scotland, UK

When all is said and done it may well turn out that the McCanns' only mistake was to leave their children unattended, alone and possibly mildly sedated with ordinary childrens sedatives, but that in the end will be the worst thing for them to live with for the rest of their lives. As medical professionals you would have thought they would understand the problems which could arise from their actions. Maybe the realisation that they would never work again if they were found out to have done this would be sufficient incentive to take matters further. I really hope that was not the case.
A warning to all parents, do not leave your children alone.

Mrs Carol Meadows, Llangennech, Llanelli, Carmarthenshire

We are all forget that there is a small child missing, does it matter what background this little girl comes from she needs everyones help to get her home.You people should be ashamed of yourselves, if you were in this situation you would take any kind of support you could to save your child. You should be proud to be British and ashamed of yourself!!!!

Diana , sheffield, UK

Ray

What would you do just let her die at the hands of Paedophiles? The fact is that the McCanns are smart enough to raise awareness about abducted children. The overview to this is that we are sick of sick people taking kids and abusing them. How would you feel if it was your daughter and how would you feel if you were Maddie? Pretty scared I would imagine. Don't cancel your account switch the TV off and prey that the McCann's find Maddie and prey this sets a future trend for awareness of this heineous crime. This could remind the politicians about Sarah's law. I support all families who have suffered in similiar circumstances.

Keith, UK, UK

whilst I would't deny any parents in the McCanns' position of all the help they can get, what do we care about the hundreds of vulnerable children at risk everyday -living as 'street kids' in the slums of places like Sao Paulo,for example; they go missing all the time and nobody even knows they've gone-

S Allen, Glastonbury, England

I agree, with the above comment, where is the support for the 100's of other poor suffering families with their missing children. Where’s the private investigation team for them.
I am seriously thinking of cancelling my account with a well-known cable TV service provider after it was announced that the owner was donating millions to the McCann’s. Why not donate millions to organisations to help other people in the same situation and spread the benefit around. What makes the McCanns so special to get all this treatment.

Ray, Hove,

Howabout, why shouldn't people help them? I feel the same way about any person who needs help, why shouldn't they be helped? Who cares where it comes from, how it's paid for so long as it helps.

Mrs U, Norfolk,

Well we all get calls from David Milliband don't we, at least you get this special treatment if your late father was a Labour MP, this whole McCann affair absolutely stinks. Just why are all these rich men pampering this couple. Who has help the Jones family after their little boy was murdered. This story makes you be ashamed to be British
